Chapter 130: Undercurrent
Early the next morning, before dawn, Tan Yang and the three quietly said goodbye to Han Wu and his wife, left Liuhua Village, and entered Panlong Mountain.
Not long after entering the mountain, the three of them walked to a cemetery in the middle of a jungle.
Tan Yang found the ancestral tomb of the Tan family familiarly, put on the sacrifice prepared for him by Han Wu and his wife last night, kowtowed a few times, and Zhong Hongying and Hu Mei'er also made a courtesy salute.
"Mei'er, we are a family, you can also kowtow!" Tan Yang said seriously.
"You ......" Hu Mei'er blushed and said coquettishly, "Stinky Tan Yang, I haven't settled the account of your nonsense with you last night, if you talk nonsense again, I will ignore you in the future." ”
Zhong Hongying was very unaccustomed to Tan Yang's flamboyant tongue, and frowned slightly: "Senior Brother Tan, if there is nothing else, let's hurry up and get on the road." ”
"Okay, okay, right away. Tan Yang was a little in awe of this ice and snow beauty, and while agreeing again and again, he dug up in the sacrificial pond under the tomb.
"What are you doing?" said Hu Mei'er curiously.
After a while, Tan Yang dug out a bamboo tube from the soil of the sacrificial pool, "My parents specially told me to come to worship the ancestral tomb, it must be Shen Mazi's idea, you see, it is true." ”
As he spoke, Tan Yang broke open the bamboo tube, took out a small paper scroll from it, and unfolded it to take a look, only to see that there were only three small characters written on it: Wuyi Lane.
Zhong Hongying was puzzled: "What does this mean?"
"This is what Shen Mazi left to me. Tan Yang said, "Wuyi Lane should be a place name in Jiuhua City, and it is also the new place where he and my parents have settled. ”
"Gao! This Shen Mazi is smart enough. Hu Meier praised. "Even if someone finds out about Liuhua Village, even if Han Wu is forced to confide. No one will be interested in your ancestral grave, that's good enough. ”
Zhong Hongying said: "It is indeed a clever plan. The Qingyang Sect is a subsidiary sect of the Thousand Dragons. You dare to hide under the nose of Qianlongmen, you can think of it. However, Senior Brother Tan, now that you have gained a firm foothold in Linghai Pavilion, why don't you bring them to Jinghai City to settle down?"
Tan Yang nodded and said, "What Senior Sister said is reasonable, I will pick them up in a few days." ”
Actually, why didn't Tan Yang want to take his parents to his side, but he was causing too many troubles now, Qingyang Sect, Wen Xianlou, Qiu Lao Wei, and so on...... As long as one thing happens, he is a mud bodhisattva and crosses the river, and it is difficult to protect himself. It's safer to let your parents follow Shen Mazi for the time being.
"Then where are we going next?" Hu Mei'er said, "Are you going back to Linghai Pavilion or going to your parents?"
Tan Yang said: "Now that I know their whereabouts, of course I will go to Jiuhua City, first, I can find out how they are doing, and I can rest assured; second, look at Shen Mazi, I haven't seen him for so long, I really miss him a little; third, you can also let my parents see you." ”
"See what I'm doing?" said Hu Mei'er curiously, but she reacted immediately, embarrassed and angry. "You...... You've really ignored you. ”
Along the way, Zhong Hongying learned a lot about Tan Yang. She shook her head and said, "Senior Brother Tan, in fact, your parents are very safe now, you go." Instead, it increases unnecessary risk. I advise you not to go for the time being, and wait for the rumors of the Qingyang Sect to subside before you go. If during this time, you can find a way to heal your parents. Wouldn't it be better to go all together when the time comes?"
Tan Yang pondered for a moment and said, "What Senior Sister said is reasonable, I listen to you, then let's leave and return to Linghai Pavilion." ”
The blue sky is like washing, and the autumn is high and refreshing.
In the blue sky, a young man in blue and two little fairies in white are flying at a gallop, beautiful as jade, and picturesque.
"Senior Sister Zhong, when did you become the Iron Armor Patrol Guard?" Tan Yang said as he flew.
Zhong Hongying said indifferently: "Two years ago, I was successfully promoted when I gathered qi on the fifth floor. ”
"Awesome!" Tan Yang wasted no time in complimenting, "What kind of spiritual weapon did Senior Sister use at that time? How did she succeed in promotion?" Can you tell me about it." ”
This time it just poked Zhong Hongying's itch, and she said proudly: "Senior Brother Tan doesn't know, in the Patrol Sea Guard Promotion Competition, except for the Linghai Magic Sword of this sect, no other spiritual weapons and spiritual treasures are allowed, even war pets, talismans, etc., otherwise a rich disciple like you can buy a few top-grade talismans casually, wouldn't you be able to advance lightly? ”
"Xiaoying, you're too humble, aren't you? As far as I know, your cultivation level was the lowest in that promotion competition, but you won the first place. Hu Mei'er said, "Luck? Where do you get so many lucks, this is called strength." ”
Zhong Hongying said humbly: "I don't dare to be, it's just that the senior brothers and sisters who participated in the competition let me." ”
"By the way, speaking of senior brother and sister, Tan Yang always calls you junior sister, you always call him junior brother, what do you two think about this?" Hu Mei'er said with a smile.
Zhong Hongying smiled and said nothing, in fact, in Linghai Pavilion, disciples of the same generation are generally sorted by age, although her age is younger than Tan Yang, but in her heart, Tan Yang is really not worthy of the title of senior brother, and unconsciously, she always calls Tan Yang a junior brother.
Tan Yang vaguely guessed Zhong Hongying's thoughts, and said: "I have already decided, I want to participate in this patrol guard promotion competition, if I can successfully advance, how about Senior Sister Zhong call me Senior Brother in the future?"
"If you really have that ability, it doesn't hurt to call you senior brother. Zhong Hongying said disdainfully, "Among our Linghai Pavilion's ironclad patrol guards, there has never been a disciple below the fifth layer of Qi gathering, it's okay to be in the limelight, just don't be beaten all over the ground looking for teeth." ”
Hu Meier said with a smile: "There is a kind of person in this world who loves to do some shocking things, even if he is beaten all over the ground to find teeth, people have no regrets." ”
Zhong Hongying Bingxue was smart, and when she heard Hu Mei'er's words, she couldn't help but turn her head and glance at Tan Yang.
The unattractive young man in front of him is indeed a little unguessable.
Successfully escaped from the Gourd Valley, was able to sneak attack the Thousand Dragon Gate Imperial Spirit Cultivator when refining the body, captured Yuan Tiangang, advanced to the Qi Gathering Realm in three years, and now became rich overnight...... All kinds of incredible miracles have appeared in him, perhaps......
Time flies. More than two months have passed in the blink of an eye.
Linghai Pavilion's patrol sea guard promotion competition is about to open, an explosive news. It caused a sensation up and down the Linghai Pavilion, and Tan Yang, who had just advanced to the Qi Gathering Realm. I actually signed up for the Iron Patrol Guard Promotion Competition!
The Great Battle of Yuan Tiangang, the Fighting Beast, the First Disciple of Shan Lingyuan in Hundreds of Years, and the Advancement to the Qi Gathering Realm...... and so on, this series of news has already made Tan Yang famous, and this time he has become the target of public criticism.
Linghai Pavilion. The summit of Tianhai Peak.
In Yuan Tiangang's bamboo house, at this moment, this explosive news is also being discussed.
"I can't think of it, I can't think of it. Deng Kai said, "This Senior Brother Tan is really whimsical, the pavilion master treats him well, can he let him take the competition as a child's play?"
"What whimsical? This is called not knowing the height of the sky. The Dao Costume disciple said angrily, "It's a pity that I have already been promoted to the Iron Armor Patrol Sea Guard. Otherwise, you can teach him a good lesson in the competition, so that this stinky boy can't get out of bed for half a year. ”
The young man in red said: "I don't need you to make a move, I have already informed all the people in Tianhaifeng who participated in this competition, no matter who meets the surname Tan, they must go all out and show no mercy." ”
After returning from the defeat in Chaoyin Cave last time, Yuan Tiangang was fortunate to find that his father was probably also deeply ashamed of this matter, not only did he not investigate it deeply, but he didn't even mention it again.
But his joy didn't last long. heard the news that Zhong Hongying personally accompanied Tan Yang out, and this news pierced into his heart like a fishbone, almost so angry that he was burned inside, and naturally hated Tan Yang even more.
Right now. The tree wants to be quiet and the wind doesn't stop, and this stinky boy actually came out to make waves again.
Yuan Tiangang listened absentmindedly to the discussion of his friends, and his heart was disturbed. Tie Qing blushed and said nothing.
"Senior Brother Huo's move is a bit of a fuss. Shi Hao said, "In the first round of the preliminary round, more than 200 people drew lots to face each other. Tan Yang may not have drawn our Tianhai Peak disciples so coincidentally, and he will definitely not be able to enter the second round of the competition. Didn't you exalt him in doing so?"
The red-clothed young man surnamed Huo said: "You don't understand, my name is fighting rabbits and mustering tiger power." It is best to let Senior Brother Yuan be drawn in the first round with the surname Tan, so that Senior Brother Yuan can take revenge on Xue Shi in a bright and bright manner. ”
Deng Kai was puzzled: "What I don't understand is that Tan Yang knows that he is humiliating himself by participating in the competition according to his strength, why do he insist on going his own way?"
"I know why. Yuan Tiangang finally spoke, "He must be for the favor of Senior Sister Bozhong, this kid came to Linghai Pavilion when he first came to Senior Sister, how can a toad not want to eat swan meat?"
"That's weird. Deng Kai said, "Participating in the competition and being beaten by others can please Senior Sister Zhong?
Shi Hao said: "Senior brothers, you all underestimate Tan Yang's scheming. Think about it, Linghai Pavilion has never had disciples below the fifth level of Qi Gathering to participate, Tan Yang's registration, regardless of the success or failure of the competition, he has become the first person in history, which can not only greatly increase his popularity, but also ask for a courageous and commendable praise from the pavilion master and the seniors in charge of the sect, wouldn't it kill two birds with one stone?"
The red-clothed young man surnamed Huo suddenly realized: "I understand, this stinky boy is indeed scheming. This means that Tan Yang is just signing up, and he is likely not to participate at all, so it seems that my hard work has been in vain. ”
The Taoist disciple smiled and said: "Senior Brother Shi is indeed very smart, in my opinion, Tan Yang is just a false shot nine times out of ten, this may be the legendary drunkard does not mean to drink." ”
Deng Kai said: "Forget it, let's not talk about him." Among the more than 200 disciples who participated in the competition this time, there were only three disciples of the fifth layer of Qi Gathering in total, in addition to Senior Brother Yuan, there were also one each of Ling Haifeng and Zhenhai Peak. I hope that Senior Brother Yuan can fight his way out of the encirclement and advance successfully, and Senior Sister Zhong will definitely be happy. ”
Shi Hao said with a smile: "Your goal is too low for Senior Brother Yuan, you can be promoted to the Iron Armor Patrol Sea Guard by rushing into the top twenty, with Senior Brother Yuan's current strength, there is no problem at all in the promotion success, the key is to be in the top ten or even the top three, so that you can enter the eyes of the Pavilion Master and Senior Sister Zhong." ”
"Don't worry, even if I give up this life, I will definitely make it to the top ten. Yuan Tiangang gritted his teeth and said, "It seems that it is impossible to teach Tan Yang a lesson in the competition, I really can't swallow this breath, think about it again, what other way can extinguish this kid's arrogance?"
Shi Hao lowered his voice and whispered: "I have a method here, although it is a little too ruthless, but it can be cut down and eradicated without much effort, you can listen to it, let's do this......"
"No! absolutely not!" Deng Kai suddenly stood up and said, "No matter how hateful Tan Yang is, after all, he is a fellow disciple, aren't you afraid of thunder and thunder in the sky?"
"No, no. Let's talk about this later. ”
Yuan Tiangang also shook his head and vetoed, but no one noticed that a trace of chill passed through his eyes......
